Carra: Bellingham could be like De Bruyne in PL


Jamie Carragher has backed Liverpool, Manchester City and Manchester United to make approaches for Borussia Dortmund midfielder Jude Bellingham next summer.

The England international has already committed his future to the Bundesliga club this season, but Carragher believes Bellingham could have a similar impact to Kevin de Bruyne in the Premier League next season.

"Well I think the one everyone talks about is Jude Bellingham and I don't think it's just his ability." Carragher told a Twitter Space with Football Daily

"I think it's his age and the fact if you got him, spent big money on him, he would hopefully be at your club.

"It's not just Liverpool, I'm sure Man City, Man United are looking at him, all the other top clubs, when you're buying him you're thinking we could have a player for the next 10 or 12 years, I think that's the thinking.

"His ability is really good and it's almost the potential of what he could become, could he become like Kevin De Bruyne is now basically - which is for me - the best player in the Premier League, you look at him in that midfield position and you just think wow.

"Maybe Man City are thinking he could replace De Bruyne or Liverpool could bring him in and he can add something or revolutionise Man United's midfield. I think he's the one that stands out for everybody, I think there will be an auction next summer and I hope Liverpool win it, fingers crossed."
